Definitions

  • the present invention relates to surgical instruments, such as surgical stapling and cutting instruments and staple cartridges for use therewith.
  • a stapling instrument can include a pair of cooperating elongate jaw members, wherein each jaw member can be adapted to be inserted into a patient and positioned relative to tissue that is to be stapled and/or incised.
  • One of the jaw members can support a staple cartridge with at least two laterally spaced rows of staples contained therein, and the other jaw member can support an anvil with staple-forming pockets aligned with the rows of staples in the staple cartridge.
  • the stapling instrument can further include a pusher bar and a knife blade which are slidable relative to the jaw members to sequentially eject the staples from the staple cartridge via camming surfaces on the pusher bar and/or camming surfaces on a wedge sled that is pushed by the pusher bar.
  • the camming surfaces can be configured to activate a plurality of staple drivers carried by the cartridge and associated with the staples in order to push the staples against the anvil and form laterally spaced rows of deformed staples in the tissue gripped between the jaw members.
  • the knife blade can trail the camming surfaces and cut the tissue along a line between the staple rows.
  • proximal and distal are used herein with reference to a clinician manipulating the handle portion of the surgical instrument.
  • proximal referring to the portion closest to the clinician and the term “distal” referring to the portion located away from the clinician.
  • distal referring to the portion located away from the clinician.
  • spatial terms such as “vertical”, “horizontal”, “up”, and “down” may be used herein with respect to the drawings.
  • surgical instruments are used in many orientations and positions, and these terms are not intended to be limiting and/or absolute.
  • Exemplary devices and methods are described for performing laparoscopic and minimally invasive surgical procedures. However, the reader will readily appreciate that the methods and devices can be used in numerous surgical procedures and applications including, for example, in connection with open surgical procedures.
  • the instruments described herein can be inserted into a body in any way, such as through a natural orifice, through an incision or puncture hole formed in tissue, etc.
  • the working portions or end effector portions of the instruments can be inserted directly into a patient's body or can be inserted through an access device that has a working channel through which an end effector and elongated shaft of a surgical instrument can be advanced.
  • a surgical stapling system can comprise a shaft and an end effector extending from the shaft.
  • the end effector comprises a first jaw and a second jaw.
  • the first jaw comprises a staple cartridge.
  • the staple cartridge is insertable into and removable from the first jaw; however, other possibilities are envisioned in which a staple cartridge is not removable from, or at least readily replaceable from, the first jaw.
  • the second jaw comprises an anvil configured to deform staples ejected from the staple cartridge.
  • the second jaw is pivotable relative to the first jaw about a closure axis; however, other possibilities are envisioned in which the first jaw is pivotable relative to the second jaw.
  • the surgical stapling system further comprises an articulation joint configured to permit the end effector to be rotated, or articulated, relative to the shaft.
  • the end effector is rotatable about an articulation axis extending through the articulation joint.
  • Other possibilities are envisioned which do not include an articulation joint.
  • the staple cartridge comprises a cartridge body.
  • the cartridge body includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a deck extending between the proximal end and the distal end.
  • the staple cartridge is positioned on a first side of the tissue to be stapled and the anvil is positioned on a second side of the tissue.
  • the anvil is moved toward the staple cartridge to compress and clamp the tissue against the deck.
  • staples removably stored in the cartridge body can be deployed into the tissue.
  • the cartridge body includes staple cavities defined therein wherein staples are removably stored in the staple cavities.
  • the staple cavities are arranged in six longitudinal rows. Three rows of staple cavities are positioned on a first side of a longitudinal slot and three rows of staple cavities are positioned on a second side of the longitudinal slot. Other arrangements of staple cavities and staples are possible.
  • the staples are supported by staple drivers in the cartridge body.
  • the drivers are movable between a first, or unfired position, and a second, or fired, position to eject the staples from the staple cavities.
  • the drivers are retained in the cartridge body by a retainer which extends around the bottom of the cartridge body and includes resilient members configured to grip the cartridge body and hold the retainer to the cartridge body.
  • the drivers are movable between their unfired positions and their fired positions by a sled.
  • the sled is movable between a proximal position adjacent the proximal end and a distal position adjacent the distal end.
  • the sled comprises a plurality of ramped surfaces configured to slide under the drivers and lift the drivers, and the staples supported thereon, toward the anvil.
  • the sled is moved distally by a firing member.
  • the firing member is configured to contact the sled and push the sled toward the distal end.
  • the longitudinal slot defined in the cartridge body is configured to receive the firing member.
  • the anvil also includes a slot configured to receive the firing member.
  • the firing member further comprises a first cam which engages the first jaw and a second cam which engages the second jaw. As the firing member is advanced distally, the first cam and the second cam can control the distance, or tissue gap, between the deck of the staple cartridge and the anvil.
  • the firing member also comprises a knife configured to incise the tissue captured intermediate the staple cartridge and the anvil. It is desirable for the knife to be positioned at least partially proximal to the ramped surfaces such that the staples are ejected ahead of the knife.
  • the staple cartridge can also include an implantable layer.
  • the implantable layer is configured to be captured within a staple along with tissue when the staple is deployed by the corresponding driver.
  • the implantable layer can comprise a buttress, a tissue thickness compensator, and/or other adjunct material.
  • a tissue thickness compensator is configured to compensate for variations in tissue properties, such as variations in the thickness of tissue, for example, along a staple line.
  • a tissue thickness compensator can be compressible and resilient. In use, a tissue thickness compensator prevents or limits the over-compression of stapled tissue while facilitating adequate tissue compression within and between staples.
  • the implantable layer of a staple cartridge can be releasably secured to the body of the staple cartridge.
  • the implantable layer can be releasably secured to the deck of the staple cartridge with a releasable adhesive, at least one attachment tab, and/or other attachment features.
  • an implantable layer can be releasably secured to the first jaw or the second jaw.
  • An implantable layer can be positioned on the cartridge-side of an end effector and/or the anvil-side of the end effector, for example.
  • An implantable layer can be configured to promote tissue ingrowth.
  • the ingrowth of tissue into an implantable layer may reduce the incidence, extent, and/or duration of inflammation at the surgical site.
  • Tissue ingrowth into and/or around the implantable layer may manage the spread of infections at the surgical site, for example.
  • the ingrowth of blood vessels, especially white blood cells, for example, into and/or around the implantable layer may fight infections in and/or around the implantable layer and the adjacent tissue.
  • Tissue ingrowth may also encourage the acceptance of foreign matter (e.g. the implantable layer and the staples) by the patient's body and may reduce the likelihood of the patient's body rejecting the foreign matter. Rejection of foreign matter may cause infection and/or inflammation at the surgical site.
  • An implantable layer having insufficient inlets and/or passages from the outer surface(s) of the implantable layer toward an inner portion of the layer may impede the ingrowth of tissue into the inner portion.
  • the tissue may be unable to obtain a foothold or grip on the implantable layer and/or tissue growth into the implantable layer may be restricted.
  • the tissue may be unable to gain traction along and/or around the outer surface of the implantable layer, and thus, into the inner portion thereof.
  • foam materials such as foam comprising a closed cellular structure and/or lyophilized foam, for example, can include a denser, less porous outer portion.
  • the foam materials can be hydrophobic and/or comprise an outer surface that is substantially smooth and/or flat and, thus, is unconducive to cell adhesion. In such instances, the ingrowth of tissue into the inner portion of the implantable layer may be thwarted by the properties of the outer portion of the implantable layer.
  • the implantable layer can include at least one tissue ingrowth passage through which tissue can be encouraged to grow and propagate.
  • a tissue ingrowth passage can extend from an outer surface of the implantable layer toward and/or into an inner portion of the implantable layer.
  • the tissue ingrowth passage can include an inlet along a surface or face of the implantable layer.
  • an implantable layer can include a surface treatment which can promote cell adhesion and/or cell motility along the surface and/or into the implantable layer.
  • the material comprising the implantable layer can be degraded and/or deteriorated prior to the implantation of the implantable layer.
  • An implantable layer comprising at least one ingrowth passage, surface treatment, and/or expedited degradation profile can be configured to promote tissue ingrowth. Additionally, the addition of a tissue ingrowth passage reduces the volume of the implantable layer, which may further prevent or reduce the likelihood of the patient's body rejecting the foreign layer implanted therein.
  • the implantable layer 100 comprises a tissue thickness compensator.
  • the implantable layer 100 comprises a piece of buttress material.
  • the implantable layer 100 includes a body 102 having an inner portion 106 and an outer portion 108.
  • the outer portion 108 surrounds the inner portion 106 such that the inner portion 106 is defined within the boundary of the outer portion 108.
  • the outer portion 108 includes a plurality of faces or sides 104, which define the perimeter of the body 102.
  • the body 102 of the implantable layer 100 comprises a rectangular prism having six faces including a first face 104a.

  • Open cell pores, such as the pore 110a can provide a tissue ingrowth inlet and/or a foothold for tissue ingrowth.
  • the body 102 can comprise a closed-cell structure. In such instances, the pores 110 can be positioned entirely within the body 102. Closed-cell pores are not open to an outer surface or face 104 of the body 102.
  • the body 102 also includes a plurality of tissue ingrowth passages 120.
  • the passages 120 extend from the outer portion 108 of the body 102 toward the inner portion 106 of the body 102.
  • at least one passage 120 extends from the first face 104a of the outer portion 108 toward the inner portion 106.
  • At least one passage 120 extends through the body 102.
  • a first passage 120a extends from the first face 104a to the opposing face 104 of the body 102.
  • At least one passage 120 terminates within the inner portion 106 of the body 102, and at least two passages 120 transect or cross within the body 102. Additionally, at least one passage 120 transects and/or passes through at least one pore 110 in the body 102.
  • the various passages 120 are oriented at different angles within the body 102 and propagate in different directions within the body 102.
  • the first passage 120a is angularly-oriented relative to a second passage 102b and the first passage 120a transects the second passage 120b in the inner portion 106 of the body 102.
  • the various passages 120 into and/or through the body 102 are configured to provide a pathway for tissue to grow into the implantable layer 100.
  • at least one passage 120 can extend from the tissue-contacting surface 104a of the implantable layer 100.
  • the varied orientation of the passages 120 may promote the integration of the implantable layer 100 into the surrounding tissue.
  • the staple cartridge 250 includes a cartridge body 252 having a deck 256.
  • a plurality of staple cavities are defined in the cartridge body 252, and each staple cavity comprises an opening in the deck 256.
  • a staple cavity 254 is defined in the cartridge body 252.
  • the staple cartridge 250 further includes a plurality of staples.
